"Very nice room with great bathroom. There was a few stains on the carpet which didnโ€™t bother us so m but itโ€™s a shame having it on light blue carpet. There is a small electric kettle to make tea or coffee which was very helpful after arrival. The only negative thing was the price of parking there ยฃ20, which is a extortionate rate for guests of the hotel."

10/10 Excellent
"We had a very good stay at the Courtyard by Marriott Luton Airport after a long day of travelling. We arrived after 1 am due to a delayed flight, but there were still staff available to greet us and check us in, which was much appreciated. The reception area, hotel and room were all exceptionally clean, and the staff were friendly, welcoming and informative. They clearly explained the parking charges, how to access our room and how to get to the airport long stay car park. The standout feature for us was the bed. It was large, comfortable and fresh, exactly what you need after a long journey! The only drawback was the limited transport available between the hotel, the airport and the long stay car park, particularly on a Sunday when the options seemed quite restricted. Overall, we had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend the hotel for an overnight stay before or after a flight."
